hi all, i have just got a set off 17*7 alloys and need 4 tyres for them, where is a good place?

or a place to source good part worn ones for now, just so i can get them on the car as soon as.

cheers

your gonna regret it if your putting them on the Indy.

They look absolutely brill but it handle like a Roller skate on an ice rink

i could be for the saxo, but you are right it is for the indy.

i got a set for a great price, and a digital car radio, and disc changer at the same time , so i could not let it pass.

they are lighter than mine 15, and looks great.

Brother in law had 17" Momo's and his Indy was very skittish when cornering so take care, I believe the general concensus is 15" and no more

I had 17's on my Indy fitted by previous owner, looked the nuts but handled like a sack of potatoes, swapped for 15" TD with Toyo tyres and has transformed the car.

Blackcircles for your tyres but i suggest visiting ebay sell function after those previous comments

but i am going to be just for looks, i do not push the indy at all, so i feel that the 17 will look great, at shows, i will keep the 15 through.


but cheers for the heads up guys.
